The Vampires

Fri 23 Mar

ARIA Award nominees, The Vampires, are touring the country and stopping in Cairns for a special night of risk-taking improvisation, sophisticated compositions and an uncanny sense of dialogue.

The Sydney based world-roots-jazz quartet have developed a style all their own that effortlessly combines influences from all corners of the world. They will be joined by bassist Alex Boneham for his first Australian performances since 2014 when he moved to Los Angeles to study at the Monk Institute with the likes of Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter.

The band collaborated with one of the jazz worlds most talked about guitarists, Lionel Loueke for their latest release 'The Vampires Meet Lionel Loueke’, which was nominated for an ARIA Award.
